Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter appear on Dragons Den

Johnny Depp and
Helena Bonham Carter pitched an idea on BBC2 show Dragons Den after being approached by the stars of the show.

Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter have starred together on screen – and now they’ve appeared on Dragon’s Den too

The five Dragons – Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Theo Paphitis, Deborah Meaden, and newcomer Hilary Devey â were filming their new series when they were alerted to the news the Hollywood actors were filming with director Tim Burton in Pinewood Studios, Buckinghamshire next door.

Helena, who has two kids with husband Tim, decided to copy wannabe entrepreneurs from the programme – which sees them pitching business ideas to the Dragons who then decide whether to invest their hard-earned cash or not â by presenting an idea for a pram company.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ‘Johnny was delighted to meet the Dragons, and Tim and Helena were telling them they are avid fans and watch every week.

‘Helena was very excited and started to pitch a Prambrella, basically a pram that features its own umbrella when it rains.

‘Johnny was laughing and joining in, but it wasnât a great idea, so all the Dragons very politely told her: âIâm outâ.’
